I'd probably say it's a Sika.

That a Sika, still impressive stags but more similar in size to a Fallow deer. There is more info on the link below.

There was a website that showed how to identift different deer, it's all in the tail apparently.
Hope you don't mind, here's an image of mine of a Red Deer at a local deer park for comparison.

- Thanks for the link and piccie Rob
- the link helped, but I still find identification difficult, especially as their coats change with the seasons! My objective is to see/shoot rutting Reds this season. Here's hoping.Russ
